An American-Iranian being the "first woman tourist in space" all sounds very nice.

However, if I were an American taxpayer, I'd be more than a little displeased at having my tax dollars being used to fund a tourist attraction with the fees going to Russia.

You have to admit, for a communist nation, Russia sure adopts capitalism pretty well when it enables them to profit off of the investments of others. And the American government is being provokingly silent about this obvious abuse of their facilities.

Russia is not a communist nation. It may be a resurgent U.S. rival some day, but its no communist. Its amazing how you deny Reagans legacy.
